Mattson Tomlin can’t quite believe that he’s here, sitting in the Netflix offices talking about his soon-to-be-released Terminator anime with Production I.G. “It started with a phone call out of the blue,” he recalls. “I was directing my movie Mother/Android, which is also about another robot apocalypse.” The film takes from Tomlin’s own experience as an adoptee and has what he calls “a completely different emotional tenor” than Terminator, but that didn’t stop him from comparing the two.
